TOPIC: There Is A Price [Open Heaven for Teens 16 December 2021]

MEMORISE: I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14

READ: Hebrews 12:1-3

  1. Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
  2. Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
  3. For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Amos 7-9, Revelation 7:1-17

MESSAGE:

Some teenagers envy some of their peers who excel in many endeavours; some even covet their achievements but are not ready to pay the price. When I attend events and see young people struggling to take selfies with an anointed minister of God or a very influential person in an industry, I shake my head. Taking a picture with a successful person doesn’t signify any achievement; in fact, their success will never rub off on you that way. Why not work hard and become successful so that others too can take selfies with you in the future?

One of my pastors said the General Overseer of a church in his state told him that he had been seriously praying to God to take him to the level of anointing on Pastor Adeboye. However, when the Lord asked him if he was ready to pay the price Pastor Adeboye paid to get to that level, he replied that he was okay the way he was. Can you pay the price of investing more time on studying to achieve the new level of success you seek in your education? Can you give cheerfully to the Lord and expect His bountiful rewards? Some things won’t happen by prayers only but by paying the price.

PRAYER POINT:

Lord, open my eyes to see what I need to do to achieve great success in life.

HYMN: I’m Pressing On The Upward Way

  1. I’m pressing on the upward way,
    New heights I’m gaining every day;
    Still praying as I onward bound,
    “Lord, plant my feet on higher ground”.

Chorus:
Lord, lift me up and let me stand,
By faith on heaven’s table-land;
Where love and joy and light abound,
Lord, plant my feet on higher ground.

  1. My heart has no desire to stay,
    Where doubts arise and fears dismay;
    Though some may dwell where these abound,
    My constant aim is higher ground.
  2. Beyond the mist I fain would rise,
    To rest beneath unclouded skies,
    Above earth’s turmoil peace is found
    By those who dwell on higher ground.
  3. I long to scale the utmost height,
    Though rough the way, and hard the fight,
    My song while climbing shall resound
    Lord lead me on to higher ground.
  4. Lord lead me up the mountain side,
    I dare not climb without my Guide;
    And heaven gained, I’ll gaze around,
    With grateful heart from higher ground.

Daily Devotional for Teen’s guide was written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, one of the largest evangelical church in the world and also the President of Christ the Redeemer’s Ministries.
